7. SNRs as probes and drivers of galaxy structure

1st Abstract

Statistical studies of supernova remnants (SNRs) require an SNR population with a set of well understood selection criteria. Current catalogs of SNRs in the Magellanic Clouds (MCs) have been compiled from detections at various wavelengths (radio, optical, and x-ray) and therefore are not complete in any statistical sense. Here we present a catalog of SNRs in the MCs with a quantitative radio selection criteria. We will highlight previously undocumented SNRs and any significant non-detections of previously known remnants.
